Celebrate...



“There are exactly as many special occasions in life as we choose to celebrate.” ~Robert Brault

Thank you to everyone who attended parent/teacher conferences today.  The halls of Eagle Ridge Academy were humming with parents and students throughout the day.  It is wonderful to see the collaboration taking place between home and school to support all of our students!  I hope you will take some time to celebrate successes before jumping into this last leg of the 2014-15 school year. 
 
Speaking of celebrations…last Saturday fourth grade students were invited to attend “A Day in Sherwood Forest” at Eagle Ridge Academy.  This was a celebration to culminate their reading of Robin Hood.  Students participated in archery tournaments, cudgel battles, made their own family banners/shields, and experienced what it was like to be in a merry band of outlaws.  The event served a dual purpose by allowing the 4th graders to collect donations for their water sustainability service project.  A good time was had by all, as evidenced by the pictures below.  







Congratulations to our Pillar Ticket Winners for the month of February.  They are:
William C.-1st Grade
Sela H.- 1st Grade
Samira I.- 5th Grade
Jaden W.- 4th Grade
Mariam Z. – 3rd Grade
These students get to select their favorite Eagle Ridge Academy staff member to have lunch with next week.  Thanks for exhibiting the Pillars!

Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Baier
